Scheduled for release on April 1, 2014, (no fooling!), the travel guide includes chapters on 66 breweries and brewpubs, along with a lot of what I hope are interesting tidbits about Florida’s beer history, culture and community.

I don’t expect to get rich from this venture, but it was a blast to “research” and to write. There are some great stories out there, and I feel honored to be able to tell some of them. The book is now available on Amazon for pre-ordering – at a discount – if you want to be one of the first to get a copy.

Any breweries, bars, book stores, food trucks, shoe shops or convenience stores who would like to pre-order in bulk for resale can contact Sarah Wolf at swolf@stackpolebooks.com.

As the release date gets nearer, I would be glad to schedule book signings. If you’re interested, please contact me directly at gerard@beerinflorida.com.
